The September edition by the homegrown monthly offers an alternative, quietly stylish vision of what women should look and behave like, that's worth sitting up and talking about

It's public knowledge that September issues of fashion magazines are a big deal, so much so that it can make or break 'image' of a particular publication. Usually planned six to eight months in advance, the hype is positioned around the clout of cover subject (either massively popular or extraordinarily reticent), its volume (fatter equals better, mostly due to abundance of ads), and of course, content - lavish photo-shoots and inspiring think pieces. We look at four leading fashion magazines, and their September cover girl selections.
Lest we forget nepotism suggesting covers featuring Suhana Khan (August) and Janhvi Kapoor (May), it has been a while since Vogue India surprised us. And so the choice of supermodels of Indian origin making headlines on international runways, Kerala-born Radhika Nair, and Saffron Vadher - half English, half Gujarati - as September cover girls seems appropriate considering it is, after all, the fashion tome.
